Although BUMDes have been established in the two villages, because the abilities, skills and knowledge of the community are still limited so they have not been able to use them optimally. The implementation of the duties of the village head in community empowerment and the use of Oabikase Village and Kiusili Village in Kefamenanu District, North Central Timor Regency has not run optimally, this is evident from the uneven infrastructure development.
